I caught up to a motorcyclist who ran into my vehicle. Here’s what happened:
I was driving straight on Jamal Road, and there was a small Micro van slightly ahead of me but on my left side with the motorcyclist behind it. The motorcyclist tried to pass the Micro van without properly judging the gap and ended up hitting my left bumper pretty hard.
He then glanced at my damaged bumper and then continued to speed away. I honked at him, but he just looked at me through his side mirrors and accelerated even more. I was like “Fuck this” and decided to chase after him. It was around 8:30 AM, and there wasn’t much traffic, so I was able to corner him in Durbarmarg.
When I got out of my vehicle and confronted him, the motorcyclist casually said, “Tapai le po malai hanya.” I realized trying to reason with him would be foolish, so I called the nearby traffic police and explained what had happened – how he fled the scene, and I had caught him here.
Traffic police told him off saying “Manavta ko hisab le ni rokera k kaso bhayo bhanera sodhnu parney haina tapailay?” bhandai.
As for the damage to my vehicle, the left bumper lock was broken and had come off, and there was also a pretty deep dent. However, I decided to only ask for Rs. 500 from him to cover the cost of repairing the lock.
I already had plans to dent/paint the bumper anyway so did not feel it was necessary to have him pay 5k. In fact, if the motorcyclist had stopped and acknowledged his mistake, I wouldn’t have even asked for the Rs. 500.

Last February, a motorcycle rammed into a parked vehicle(at night), and the vehicle was instead penalized. 🤣
This is the most common issue i often see people trying to ride in between vehicle if they see gap. As a bike rider I used to just wait with some gap until i realize people are coming from other lane to fill the void of gap that i left for so these days i also try to push by bike in between car or buses so i remain a head of them.
In majority case Car driver are fine driver but Taxis and white micro buses are notorious when it comes to giving priority to small vehicle.
I recently caught a rider arguing with Tesla owner as his bike bumped into back side of Tesla in jam. Lol
Car driver are comparatively better at least they care about their car but taxis, white micro, local buses and truck driver are worse than biker rider.
Good karma from you.
If law makers and lawyers don’t respect the law, why should citizens?
